Batch Close
Under Batch Close, you can view present and past booking periods, export said periods, among other things.
What is a Batch Close?
The Batch Close, or daily closing, is executed once each day on every terminal that is connected to your Saferpay account. By default, this happens automatically at 10 pm CET/CEST. During this process, all transactions that have passed through the capture or booking are filed with the payment method processor in order to initiate the cash flow.
Overview
The overview shows a list of all your booking periods, their opening and closing dates, the number of transactions filed, as well as the respective Saferpay terminal.
The Search
By clicking on the Advanced Search icon in the top right of the overview, you can filter this view by a date, the state of the period, or a terminal, or you can also search for a specific booking period by entering its ID.
Export
By clicking on Export for a given booking period, you can download an Excel .xlsx file. Similar to the Backoffice Export, it contains a list of transactions. However, in this case only the transactions that are filed under this specific booking period.

If you want, you can get a listing of all transactions included in a given booking period if you click on Show transactions in the Detail view. This will lead you to the Transaction Journal, displaying the connected transactions.
Triggering the Batch
Via API
If desired, the Batch Close can also be triggered via the Saferpay API. The request necessary for this is called Batch Close.
Before you can use the API, you need to disable the daily closing in the Saferpay Backoffice via Settings => Terminals for the respective terminal. Closing should be carried out only once a day.
Via the Backoffice
You can also trigger the batch by clicking on the Batch Close button on the Booking period details page.
